Wasn't sure where to put this. Blue plaque unveiling for Sam Allen tomorrow and the second one in Kent Road. https://twitter.com/Gateway2TheWestMuch more important than the cup final or celebrating the breeding programme of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.

Definitely. At the home of a family friend too, they're really nice people! (Although not that into football, which is a shame, but very proud of Swindon's heritage)

The Royal Wedding, interestingly the sermon by the American minister is rather captivating (says the non religious man), kind of reminds me of Reverend Lovejoy from the Simpsons.

Well said Legends....as one coming out of a faith background it infuriates me that weighty scholars and preachers are now analysing and judging his 'performance', when, in one sermon, he has made a greater impact with the non-religious than they will make in a lifetime!

Made me sit up and take notice, put a smile on my face. Doesn’t change my beliefs about religion, that’s all of them BTW but I admire his conviction. Outside of the bride and groom he stole the show in a positive way and surly spice in a negative way.

Doing 180+ miles on the bike in Holland and Belgium over the weekend and getting home 2lb heavier than when I left.... It was a fairly alcohol and meat rich weekend.
